I've seen the pilot episode of Breaking Bad. It was cool, I want to see more.

I watched Hellraiser 2: Hellbound. I actually enjoyed it a lot more than the first one, it showed more of the cenobites and their world, I thought that was cool. It was also very funny at parts, especially in the cenobite-Channard scenes.

I think I'll just stop here with the Hellraiser series, I've heard nothing but bad things of the sequels after the second movie.

I've only seen the first one. I watched it when I was 6, from what I can remember, I enjoyed it.

i love Hellraiser. i've watched them all and got the films cheap. you're right about the others, but maybe give Hellraiser: Inferno a watch. i think it's the 5th one, but anyway the main character is a police detective. when i watched it i thought it was going to be another laugh-a-minute pile of shit like the previous two, but i was pleasantly surprised. i've only watched it once but i'm pretty sure i enjoyed it, therefore it can't be as shit as the shit ones.

not sure though. give it a watch if you get the chance, and let me know if it's shite or not. i can't remember properly.

It kinda depends on your take on horror, some say. I actually think they're pretty mediocre at best, but even though that's my opinion, I think you should watch it and take your own conclusions. If ya don't like it, you can make like I do, just forget them until something likes this happens.

Thing about Hellraiser 2 is that a lot of crucial scenes were cut, which made the final cut make a lot less sense. Still a very good in terms of sequels, especially how it picks up exactly where the first left off. After that, I'd say Inferno is probably the least terrible of the sequels. Note that I say "least terrible" and not "best".

Doug Bradley, the guy who plays Pinhead, lives in my hometown and I run into him now and again. I'm also on pretty friendly terms with his girlfriend, who is happy to share the kind of stories he's too polite to tell. I see him and his lady a lot through a friend of mine who runs a local freakshow/museum of oddities.

JEALOUS?

I recently watched A Clockwork Orange, one of my all time favorites.

But one movie I feel I really need to talk about is Silver Linings Playbook. I went and saw this has it had really great reviews, talk about an overrated flick. It wasn't a bad movie, it started off really good, but it just got so mediocre because me and friend were sat there in the cinema telling each other what was goona happen next before it even happened and sadly for us 99% of the time we were correct and it just really lowered the quality of the whole thing. In the end, it just ends up being a very predictable movie consisting of everything you have seen in every other movie.

I've just seen those 5 miniepisodes of Breaking Bad made between the first two seasons. God they were shitty. Why did they make them, again?

They're funny. Just don't take them seriously.

To answer your question, I'm really not sure.

They were mostly uncreative, the directing was absolutely awful and it didin't really feel like Breaking Bad at all. More like some fan videos... with real actors and stuff.

I need to see that one.

My friend has been trying to get me watch Archer. I don't find it funny. Maybe I'm not watching it enough, but it just does nothing for me.

My friend's been trying to get me to watch Archer. I don't know why he loves it so much. I find it very dull, and it's never really made me laugh honestly. Just feels like a constant stream of cheap sexual innuendos.

The appeal is Jon Benjamin's voice, but that's about it. You'd be better off watching Bob's Burgers, the latest debacle by master of dry comedy Loren Bouchard. It's far more endearing than Archer, with all the Jon Benjamin-y goodness in tact.

I find Archer much, much more entertaining than Bob's Burgers.

I loved the first Archer episode I saw, then liked every subsequent episode slightly less with the exception of one or two standouts. I'll give the third season a look whenever they finally decide to air it here, but I won't be buying it or anything silly.

Jon Benjamin's voice is definitely part of the draw for me.

Depends on what kind of humor you like. Archer has the asshole factor going for it, where all the characters are assholes and we laugh at them because they're assholes. Bob's Burgers is the opposite in that the characters are flawed but endearing. The former wears on me faster than the latter, though I enjoy both.

That show was great! Still, their greatest achievement will always be Home Movies. Nothing compares to the genius that was Home Movies. Nothing.

Yeah, John McGuirk was easily Benjamin's finest role.

Bob's Burgers I do like. For more than just Jon's acting. It's a genuinely funny show.
